The Libra book is up for pre-order! Here’s the book’s own page<\/a>. Feel free to spread this link around: https:\/\/davidgerard.co.uk\/blockchain\/libra\/<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

That’s the blurb page \u2014 so tweaks are most welcomed!<\/p>\n

The preorder price is \u00a34.99 or $6.99. When it goes live, that’ll go up to \u00a35.99 or $7.99. So get in early.<\/p>\n

Or sign up for the Patreon<\/a> — $5-and-up patrons get the ebook, and are currently<\/i> getting text previews!<\/p>\n

I can assure you, it doesn’t take a lot of numbers to be an Amazon category best-seller. This was when the book had 11 presales:<\/p>\n

Annoyingly, Kindle Print doesn’t do paperback preorders \u2014 and no, they don’t like placeholder uploads. So that’ll have to wait until the day.<\/p>\n

I also plan to do an audio book \u2014 but that’ll definitely be after the main publication date.<\/p>\n

I’m still polishing the book text \u2014 and Alli Kirkham is working on the cover. But 95% of my problems now are marketing and promotion. I’m available for interviews and podcasts!<\/p>\n

The first step is: tell everyone you know!<\/p>\n

I probably can’t use this as a cover, but it had certain temptations:<\/p>\n
